As I’ve mentioned before, the Sip feature is a good way to let other beer fans know about your current favorites. Feel free to send me suggestions to include, either as a comment or in an e-mail to me directly.

If you missed the yesterday’s piece, I’ve pasted it below. Because it was running on Mother’s Day, I wrote it with a holiday theme. But Mom — or Dad, or Sis, Spouse, Cuz, whatever — can enjoy Devil’s Backbone all spring.

THE BEER: Devil’s Backbone, from Real Ale Brewing Co.

WHY IT’S HOT: Today is Mother’s Day, and Mom will love this beer from the Texas Hill Country. And because the Real Ale brewers in Blanco are bottling Devil’s Backbone for the first time this year, you can bring Mom a six-pack instead of some smelly ol’ flowers.

BEER PROFILE: It’s a super-smooth, just-sweet-enough Belgian-style tripel. Have one, and you’ll want another. But be aware: At 8.1 percent alcohol by volume, Devil’s Backbone is best enjoyed in moderation.

AVAILABILITY: You can find this limited-release spring seasonal on draft at the better beer bars around town, including the new BRC “American gastropub” at 519 N. Shepherd. If you can’t find a six-pack at your local grocery, you can pick one up at Spec’s for $8.99.
